US v. Butler

    0.04 sec.

US v. Butler

US Supreme Court decision of 1936 concerning a New Deal policy of using federal taxing powers to regulate the economy. The challenge was brought against the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA), which taxed food processing to pay for farm subsidies, thereby discouraging the planting of certain crops. The Court ruled the AAA invalid on the grounds that it taxed with the purpose of regulating agricultural production.
